Heres the last part! I had fun writing this so I hope you enjoyed reading it! It's an epilogue of sorts but I think I will write one more chapter of this story anyway.

"Oh, you're here, you're here!" the voice of the ringmaster calls as he beckons the people around him inside with a flick of his wrist. Excited couples and families pour into the tent unknowing of the horrors they were going to see. Young girls were here after following the beauty of the ringmaster through the streets to the circus. His silver hair was poofy but it shimmered and looked like it was meant to be this way. His face was also something to see with deep purple eyes and a winning smile, the ringmaster always had an audience ready for his circus.

"Tonight, we'll be showing the sad fate that some of this world carries. Children that God has abandoned, restlessly creeping out, children who can't even carry the trembling limbs they were born with; their shaking tongues even accidentally cry out, the crowns of their head that caress the dark clouds. They smile as they dream of their mothers embrace. Oh, the deformity! DEFORMITY!" he called with a giggle before he disappeared further into the tent. The smile he wore dropped immediately as he walked past the cages of his prizes.

After he had entered, he motioned for one figure to move to the crowds.

"Yes, sir!" two voices said at once, one voice happy while the other sounded like it would cry. One set of footsteps echoed out and the cries from the crowd could be heard. Joy and horror could both be heard as the figure spoke and sung and did tricks.

The ringmaster went back to looking over his prizes.

The blind green girl with no legs sat alone in a large cage. Her eyes oozed with blood and gore while trails of blood could be seen from a long time ago when the remains of her legs were still healing. Her hands were grasping the bars of her cage so tightly her knuckles were white and at certain times her shoulders would shake as she cried. The sting of the salty dears in her non-healing eyes hurt more than the acid burn that was visible on her left cheek all the way down to her bare shoulder. She wore a short green dress with no straps that flared out a tiny bit. The girl never smiled, she wanted to die. She was ugly, she was trapped. She had wanted to be free, she had wanted to design clothes with her friend but she had been trapped by the ringmaster's spell on her way home and whisked away from her old life for this hellish one. Her family thought she was dead, as did her friends. Nobody was looking for her anymore.

The grinning blue fanged boy in the strait jacket was the ringmaster's prized possession. His face had been left and his hair was longer than it had been when he had been caught. It was sticky from old gel and a dustier colour than it had been due to the mistreatment and the darkness the boy had been kept in. he was wearing a blue strait jacket with white and silver buckles that were meant to match his blue eyes. The only thing on the boy that didn't look right was that his ears had been cut off but the wounds had been cleaned so that only scars remained of what used to be his. The reason the ringmaster had him was so that he could be named 'a beast'. He shut people off and didn't like human interaction. The icing on the cake was that the ringmaster made him eat rotting human remains and nothing else. the boy couldn't even taste them anymore.

The last cage held a new, untouched boy who sat alone with head down he hadn't been maimed yet and in his head he had started making escape plans. He heard footsteps and looked up only to see the ringmaster.

"Hiro-chan? That was what your mother called you wasn't it? Well, Hiro-chan welcome to the circus. This is a place that I run myself. I enjoy earning money from the deformed freaks here. And you will be deformed soon, so don't worry," the ringmaster leaned away from the cage to look at the blue boy.

"What do you think Neku? I think I'll carve out his eyes and cut off all of his hair. Maybe then I can pour some of the leftover acid from last month down his front and see how that affects him," the silver haired man was grinning as he reached into the cage to touch his newest toy. Neku let out a noise of disgust at his owner but the other male ignored him as he tended to the boy as if he were a dog. The boy inside the cage bit down on the outstretched hand with all his might causing the elder to gasp and growl as he ripped his hand back.

"Idiot boy! Now your teeth will come out too," he growled before he stood up and walked over to Neku. He leaned down close to the boy and placed a kiss on his lips.

"Oh Neku, if only we had met under better circumstances…" he giggled as he ran a hand across the boy's cheek before poking one of the fangs then wrapping one hand around his neck.

"You didn't answer me," he growled as he lifted the boy out of his chair slightly. The green girl covered her ears as Neku screamed out.

"I'll never play along with your sick little game!" he screamed to nobody in particular. Joshua smirked as he sat him down and walked away. Neku breathed heavily and looked over to the new boy.

"I'm sorry," he said as he looked away. "I wish that you could-" He stopped mid-sentence as the ringmaster made his way back with a bowl of sloshing liquid. He began to undo the buckles on Neku's straight jacket only to uncover acid burned wrists and a scarred chest. He tied the boy's wrists with a makeshift rope binding which he secured around the already-bruised wrists.

"I hate hurting you Neku," the ringmaster said with a smirk as he laid the male out on the floor. He pulled on a glove and pulled a cloth out of the bowl. For a second, a flicker of fear could be seen in the boy's eyes. The new child watched as the orange haired boy squirmed around.

"Then… don't hurt me" Neku growled through gritted teeth. He screamed as he felt the ringmaster squeeze the cloth over his chest so that the acid that it held came pouring down.

"Too late," the ringmaster giggled. He dropped the cloth letting it hit Neku with a satisfying plop.

"um… boss?" a small voice asked. In the doorway stood the two headed child, Rhyme and Beat. Beat's face was splashed with acid burns while Rhyme looked fine. "our act is over, they're ready for Shiki now," the girl half of the monster said. The silver haired man smiled and clapped his hands together.

"Perfect," he said as he stood. "Clean that up," he said as an afterthought as he walked out of the curtain.

Neku turned to the child in the cage. The child looked back at him with wide eyed terror. Neku looked at him with an indifferent expression.

From the next room Shiki could be heard singing.

'It's painful, it's painful, and it can't be helped
She said it
but still, we continue this circus
(Forever!)

It's fun, so fun!
This circus is so fun
Rotten fruit, to dissolve my eyes
My skin festers, reflected on my eyes'

"We have to do what he says," Rhyme sighed as she picked Neku up and placed him on his chair. She took the bonds off his hands and let him move his arms for a minute before the strait jacket was slipped back on. He sighed again and his head sung back round to the scared child.

"You heard her, the circus is fun. So laugh and have fun," he said as he looked away. All Hiro-chan could think about was what was going to happen to him and as he did his mind faded to blackness as he tried to make himself unresponsive as possible.

The ringmaster was just finishing his speech and everyone knew that he would soon come into this part of the tent to 'get Hiro-chan ready for his first show' the next day.

They all knew it was hopeless, but they had no way out. Hiro-chan curled up as small as he could as he saw the smile of the ringmaster approaching.

There was nothing left to do.

And that's the end of that! In the end the dream was the one dreaming to try and get over the shock of being caught by the evil man the backgrounds given in the dream's chapters were the actual backgrounds of the children in the circus and when the dream had taken them in, that was when they entered the circus.

So I'm gonna write more about the inside the dream's head because he's about to spiral into madness.
